Paris Saint-Germain see off Montpellier to set new Ligue 1 record

Paris Saint-Germain have set a new Ligue 1 record for the most victories in a season having defeated Montpellier HSC 4-0 at Parc des Princes.

The hosts were ahead with just two minutes gone when Ezequiel Lavezzi, who was a late addition to the squad for the injured Edinson Cavani, fired past Geoffrey Jourdren.

The second goal came courtesy of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who chipped the ball over Jourdren when played in by Javier Pastore to give PSG some early breathing space.

Lavezzi almost added a third before the interval after Lucas Moura's effort was spilled into his path, but his diving header was caught by the keeper.

Moura did manage to find a way through shortly after the restart, however, firing into the back of the net to treble PSG's advantage on 49 minutes.

Adrien Rabiot rounded off the scoring late on when he tapped home Kingsley Coman's effort which was initially saved, ensuring the French champions ended their season with a record breaking 27th league win.
